A member asked:
Is there a quality difference between vivelle (estradiol) brand estrogen patches and generic ones, e.g., estradot 17b?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: There might be no difference in the chemical component (estradiol), however, vivelle dot provides a better matrix for a more dependable and reliable delivery of the medication. That in turn will lead to better absorption and more efficacy
